Raybender® 3000 Dome – lights the way

Only Solatube® uses Fresnel lenses in the dome to refract light into the top of the tube, actively capturing daylight into the system. It also employs a simple reflector system, LightTracker™, to catch light that hits the dome from lower angles. In real terms, this could mean as much as twice as much light entering the top of the tube than on any other system.

Spectralight® Infinity - the most reflective tube on the planet

Our tubes are made from a material called Spectralight® Infinity, the most reflective material in the world. At 99.7% reflectivity, no other system will deliver as much light into your home. And even though some competitor systems boast figures of up to 98%, in a typical installation, this could mean that 30% of the original light volume is lost, compared to around 6% in a Solatube. Cheaper, flexible-duct systems would be losing around 90% of the original light.

Stylish, double-glazed diffusers

With a choice of four diffuser styles, you’re guaranteed to find a design to complement your home. Solatube diffusers not only distribute the light evenly around the room, they are double-glazed to ensure that they don’t heat the room up in summer or let heat out in the winter. They’re also UV shielded to help prevent fading of you carpet and furnishings.
